    What the jury seems not to understand is that they can be "deadlocked" on one or more of the 18 charges without risking a mistrial on the others.

      Cohen has plead out, though we don’t yet know to what

        Hmm. Does that make it more or less likely that he's throwing Trump under the bus?

            Thought the NYT sources disagree

            Michael D. Cohen, President Trump’s former lawyer, on Tuesday reached a plea agreement with prosecutors investigating payments he made to women on behalf of Mr. Trump, a deal that does not include cooperation with federal authorities, two people familiar with the matter said.

              Are the "two people" 45 and Giuliani?

                Cohen and one of his lawyers

                It would be amusing if the judge rejects the plea

                  Will these be state or federal charges, ya think?

                    Federal

                    His plea is scheduled for 4pm in federal court

                    And yes, that is important for the pardon issue

                      EPA living up to its name again as fucking cunt Wheeler delivers for his coal buddies by throwing the uppity nigger's coal emissions regulations on the bonfire.

                      Fucking black infamy from utter, subhuman scum.

                        Manafort guilty on all five tax fraud and three bank fraud counts

                        Jury deadlocked on the rest, on which the judge declares a mistrial.

                        Cohen reportedly pleading to tax fraud, bank fraud and campaign finance violations.

                          At what point will people stop working with Trump because there's too high a statistical chance of ending up locked up?

                              Manafort guilty on 8 counts. Jury deadlocked on the rest.

                              What is the consequence of the mistrial on the other 10 charges? Do they get tried again? Do they get thrown out? Does the prosecution not care because Manafort's getting stuck inside anyway?

                                Cohen is admitting to committing campaign violations "at the direction of the candidate".

                                  SB, it is completely up to the prosecution as to whether they bring the "mistrial" counts before another jury. They may well not, given everything else they have him on.

                                      The "federal candidate" is flying to West Virginia for a "rally" tonight.

                                      That is going to be wild

                                      Cohen's allocution (the required statement in open court accompanying his plea) on him being "directed" by 45 is very hard to spin (though I'm sure that they will try).

                                          "Paul Manafort is a good man bla bla there is no Russian collusion"

                                          Asked about Michael Cohen. Walked away.

                                              What could have been more beautiful than both of these stories breaking within an hour of each other?

                                                That's a real question, too.

                                                    I am bothered that one of the candidates for governor of Wyoming is called Foster Friess. It's annoying because there's a really good soft-serve ice cream chain (basically, California Dairy Queen But Better) called Fosters Freeze. I don't want to think about Republicans when eating a hot fudge sundae.

                                                    Although perhaps my mood would be improved if every time there's a Republican on the tell, I stop listening and start fantasising about a caramel marble fudge parfait instead.
